Nosso Mar is one of the best seafood restaurants in Brasilia, and a tradition for us on Brazilian Valentine's Day. The first time I ever had a still in shell crab, they gave me a mallet and I smashed it to bits. The environment is simple and the beers are Brazilian basic, but the food is great and the waiters friendly.

The fish stew is excellent and filling, though I like mine a little spicier.

And the garlic shrimp is great but a little pricey. Brazilians eat too much shrimp, they need to try some of the other treats of the sea.
